Hi, I am using Djgpp 2.0 in Windows 95, there is this problem that's
troubling me: it seems that programs like gdb still uses the UNIX / to
denote directory instead of using \ according to Windows convention, for
example:

gdb H:\code\test.exe won't work, while

gdb H:/code/test.exe would.

The problem is I am using Codewright and UltraEdit (both are ``power''
programming editors), they both provide one-click access, predefined menu
command or button command to common tasks like compiling and debugging, but
they all generate path information using \, thus gdb won't work correctly.

Are there any options in Djgpp which can force those programs to recognize \
notation?

Thanks,

yours
Leiming
